The !SELECTED!Cuckoo's Nest !ENDOFSELECTED!was just what we wanted and the lit fire on arrival was a really lovely touch. A perfect location for peace & quiet but also close enough to the town and pubs without having to travel too far. The cottage had everything we needed and to see the cows close up in the yard was the highlight of my little boys Read morestay. Great for dog walks and a fantastic cleaning spot by the laundrette to hose off muddy dogs and boots before a Cosy night in. The owner is very welcoming too Hide

We had a wonderful stay in the Corn Store. A beautiful cottage in peaceful surroundings. A home from home, with everything we needed for a comfortable few nights stay. The beds were super-comfortable and we slept like logs! Lovely in the evening, sitting outside enjoying the late sunshine and listening to the sounds of the countryside. Ideally placRead moreed for walkers, cyclists and nature lovers and within easy travel of the Iron Gorge museums and other historical sights. We hope to be back soon Hide
